Is it really beef you're eating? China restaurant turns pork into 'beef'
A noodle restaurant in Hefei, China, is reportedly turning pork into 'beef' with a 'beef extract additive'. STOMPer Gotbeef warns travellers to be wary of such dubious practices when dining out in small eateries overseas.
The STOMPer reports:
"Here's the latest 'magical', outrageous and irresponsible way to turn pork into 'beef'.
"I came across this report on the internet; just hope that STOMPers here can be warned of these 'beef pretenders' and beware when you are in that area.
"I feel so relieved that in Singapore, such acts will be checked upon instantly!
"In Hefei, China, a noodle restaurant apparently uses a 'beef extract additive' to turn pork into 'beef' in 90 minutes.
"The final product is very much like stewed 'beef'!
"Use of such additives can cause slow poisoning, deformity, and even cancer
, especially in the long term.
"The 'beef extract' additive has been discovered circulating widely on the market, allowing for chicken meat to be come 'beef'.
"A city resident revealed that this “beef extract” is not only used in the production of meat floss, its use is also a 'public secret' in some small eateries.
"The local authorities claim that they will investigate this rumour."
